Hi to all,
i'm playing with ottd 6.0 and ecs with db xl with ecs extensions. I successfully refitted wagons for some products but i cannot find in this train set wagons to be refitted for fruits, sand, refined products and other.
Do i need to downloads others wagons ?
Thank you,

First, I would like to say that you should use the proper version number which is 0.6.0, not 6.0. Some people here really hate it if you use the wrong version number (can't blame them) and will flame you.
And for your question, there is a newcargoes extention available for the DB Set XL which should be downloadable from
http://www.ttdpatch.de/ (which is currently down IIRC) or from
GRF Crawler which is your ultimate source of NewGRFs, even though not all NewGRFs are available from there.

I apologize

for my mistake...i'm using the 0.6.0 version.
For my question, do you mean that there are additional wagons to add to the db xl set with ecs ?
I'm already using the db xl set with ecs but i cannot find wagons refittable for some product. I have seen on GRF Crawler site but i cannot find them.
Can you help me ?
Regards,
Poffio.

Hi,
i have found and added to the game the newcargow.grf wich permits to refit wagons in more products.
i have added this grf after dbs set xl 0.82 and after ecs extension.
I have seen that after the installation of this grf that i have more industries types. For example i have two factory type. and double brewery and fishing grounds
I attach screenshoots with industries list before and after adding the newcargow.grf
Is it expected ?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Poffio.

You have now expanded your industries in two ways: by using an ECS-compatible industries grf (that is, George's ECS set), which gave you many, many industries (depending on which parts you included; only Towns is mandatory); and by using the older grf by Mr. Blunck, which gave you fish and beer. The latter are supported from the basic DBSetXL; for the first (or any other ECS-set, of which there are none as yet...) you need the DB-XL-extension grf, which you have correctly placed after the regular DBSetXL grf.
